AMUSEMENTS. Rentree of Mrs. Lander. Our readers will be delighted to hear that Mrs. Lander has been prevailed upon to give a series of repre sentations of the new play of E.itabeth at the Academy of Music, commencing next week. We feel sure that the enterprise will prove a great success, and will add new laurels to the already magnificent crown of our "Queen of Tragedy." Professor Tripp delivers the second of his celebrated Lectures on "France since 1848," in IJDiversity Hall, Ninth, above Chesnut, this evening, at 8 o'clock. This second lecture gives s vivid portrayal of the thrilling scenes in the French capital during the stormy days of Feb ruary aud June, which marked one of the greatest political convulsions of modem times. The first leeture was a fine success, the audi nce being moderately Urjje, very select, and highly appreciative. A Dante Encyclopedia. Professor FerrazzI has lately published the third volume of his "Kncyclopiedia Dantesca," a valuable work, which will be completed in four volumes. The matter embraced in it involves, as the title im plies, every species of knowledge relawng to Dante and Lis times,; biographic, historic, critical, and pbilologic, in the shape of indices, extracts, commentaries, disquisitions, essays, ete. TLe bibliographic section Includes co pious lists and notices of foreign translations of Dante, and works concerning him and his writings, as well as the various Italian edi tions and works of the same character. Pro fessor Ferrazzi shows himself, says one of his critics, to be a genuine Dantesque scholar and enthusiast, and has devoted to his task a deal of single-minded industry, which will fitly be met by the honorable status to dq asaiguea io his book in the literature of Dante. In addi tion to its specialty, his book contains inte resting notices of Petrarch, Ariosto, and Tasso. A Neat Sarcasm. Kmile de Girardin closes a recent editorial article very neatly. lie had explained his plan for avoiding war, and at the same time saving the honor and sensibili ties of both Frenchmen and Prussians. "But this plan," says he in substance, "has not been legitimately born in the cabinet of a minister, but illegitimately in the office of an editor. What credit should be given to his rash predictions, which have no merit except that of being verified by events t What thanks should he have for his warnings ? What re compense does he ask ? A hearing. lie cries to you: 'Strike, but hear.' The blockhead! Don't hear, and strike' "Always Aim at What Becomes You." Most ridiculous advice. Just imagine a man setting up his best coat for a target or blazing away at his new spring beaver. The man in jail who looked out of the window of his cell and exclaimed, ' 'This is a ffrate country!" is now generally admitted to liave spoken within bouiuh. '"You would be pretty indeed," said a gentleman, patronizingly, to a young lady, "it your eyes were only a little larger. My eyes may be very small, sir, but such people as you don't Jill them !" A Davenport (Iowa) woman, who wasn't married when Bhe expected to be, sued the faithless for $sll-2Ii, expenses for lights, re freshments, etc. A young man in Ashland, Ohio, recently jilted by a coquette, who married another, rcovered $2:50 for presents made to her dur ing courtship, and six cents for injured all'eo- tions. . A young lady of Montgomery, who was recently caught smoking a cigar, gave it as her reason for the act, "that it made it smell as though there was a man arouuu."
